The word pathetic comes to mindPosted by Catherine Cartwright-Jones on August 13, 2003 at 22:00:05: In reply to: Infuriating: more on henna vs. bod mod posted by Nick on August 13, 2003 at 18:44:03: This is very sad, and reveals him to be shallow and insecure (not tomention ignorant) person hiding behind a scary facade. Body modification is deliberately rearranging one's body to achieve, negate, rearrange experience. People experience the world through their body, and the world experiences them through their appearance. If you manipulate your body you change the way you experience the world, and the world will experience you in new ways. THAT'S the essence of body modification ... exploring the symbiosis of changing/challenging/enhancing/negating your body/experience/interactions through deliberate modification ... of all sorts. Bod Mod is NOT just putting on something scary and seeing how much attention you can get or how much you can piss off people. And ... shallow, insecure people definitely do NOT care to be challenged! BTW .. Nick, I like the way you think and write! You're GOOOOOOOOD!
